Gary, thanks for labouring thru my posting to you and for your comments.
Please post my email onto the CS list if you still have it. I've
lost/misplaced my long tome/epistle. I'm not a very experienced Netscape
person and failed to save the original wording.

Your method of ridding yourself of foot fungal out-breaks is certainly
novel and a bit scary. I've tried using washing powder over the years,
to cleanse heavily oiled hands, say after tinkering with the car etc. I
always found the heat and burning sensation that the powder and water
created/generated (probably caused by the caustic soda content) a little
suspect, although your hands got really clean. But hey! now I've got CS
and can avoid trying your novel method!!

Also in relation to the slanging/sledging of the personalities on the
list, may I say the following. And may I say this to everyone. Why
bother answering a post if one feels its of little value etc etc.

The beauty of the net and email is that one can IGNORE and let me repeat
"one can IGNORE" any posting, any message!!!!. Why go on and let it
become personal and totally unproductive. Let your ego accept it and
JUST LET IT WASH OVER YOU. . . It costs no energy at all to stop
thinking about what some other body has had the "audacity" to say. But
hey! you can just ignore it without any bad thoughts.

Mayabe I'm missing the point, after all I'm a new commer to the net and
the CS list. But, I have learned one thing and that is how easy it is to
apply the delete key for posts that are of no interest to me personally
or beyond my technical knowhow etc.
